Within this contribution we present recently published findings [1] on the new way of utilizing polymeric materials for vibration damping. We present and demonstrate patented dissipative bulk and granular systems technology [2], based on which we have developed granular damping elements (GDE). The damping elements consist of granular viscoelastic m...

Large migrations in the postwar period have mostly influenced stagnation, anddemographic depopulation of the rural territory of Crna Trava. The fate of the villagewas also shared by educational institutions, there were around 20 them in thismunicipality. Along with the loss of basic educational functions, the care of the localgovernment for this ty...

In the current socio-economic context, and particularly in the cities of southern Europe,one of the essential objectives of urban planning is the production of a public space as acollective good that qualifies, shapes and makes sense of urban functions. In thecomposition of "the public" the role of collective urban facilities is key. A tour of cert...

Descriptive geometry is one of the fundamental subjects in the education of future architects, civil engineers and engineers of geodesy. During the course, certain differences in mastering the teaching material have been noticed, as well as the divergence in performance of students in relation to their study program. In order to analyse these diffe...

This Paper focuses on the importance measures for facilitation of air comfort in construction and the possibility of its application in architectural design. Facilitation of adequate comfort in physical environment directly affects health and working abilities of people and significantly increases energy consumption. Between 30% and 40% of the tota...

Geoportal is an indispensable part of the national spatial data infrastructure and a central point of access to spatial data. The paper presents the development of a geoportal based on the principles of service-oriented architecture. Open source frameworks and libraries were used to create geoportal. The aim of the paper is to present a partially d...

During the last thirty years, concrete has been industrially mutating from a soft granular medium to a proper non-Newtonian fluid. To benefit from the full potential of the modern fluid concretes such as Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC), prediction tools of the form filling taking into account the properties of the concrete, the shape and size of the...
